[0028] A side repair plate 3 is provided on both sides of the lifting arm 1, and a positioning frame 6 is provided on both sides of the corresponding lifting arm 1. The positioning frame 6 is arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the side repair plate 3, and the positioning frame 6 is used to perform precise positioning operations on the corresponding side repair plate 3 before welding.

[0029] Specifically, the support frame 5 includes a support rod 51 and a reinforcement rod 52. The support rod 51 is vertically fixed on the connecting rod 42. The reinforcement rod 52 is arranged below the support rod 51 and the two ends of the reinforcement rod 52 are respectively connected to the support rod 51 and the connecting rod 42, thereby stably supporting the positioning frame 6.

[0030] The positioning frame 6 includes a bottom positioning plate 61, a first side positioning plate 62, a second side positioning plate 63 and a top pressure positioning plate 64. The bottom positioning plate 61 is horizontally arranged on the support rod 51, and the bottom positioning plate 61 is arranged corresponding to the bottom of the side repair plate 3, and is used to support and position the lower edge of the side repair plate 3.

[0031] The first side positioning plate 62 and the second side positioning plate 63 are respectively arranged on both sides of the side repair plate 3, the first side positioning plate 62 is fixedly set on the connecting rod 42, and the second side positioning plate 63 is fixedly set on the bottom positioning plate 61, and the first side positioning plate 62, the second side positioning plate 63 and the bottom positioning plate 61 are all arranged vertically, and the first side positioning plate 62 and the second side positioning plate 63 respectively perform positioning operations on both sides of the side repair plate 3.

[0032] Preferably, the first side positioning plate 62 and the second side positioning plate 63 are arranged in parallel, thereby ensuring that both sides of the side repair plate 3 are vertically fitted with the first side positioning plate 62 or the second side positioning plate 63, so as to improve the positioning effect of the first side positioning plate 62 and the second side positioning plate 63 on the side of the side repair plate 3.

[0033] The top pressure positioning plate 64 is vertically fixed on the bottom positioning plate 61, and the top pressure positioning plate 64 is vertically arranged with the fixing rod 41. An adjustment gap is arranged between the top pressure positioning plate 64 and the lifting arm 1, and the side repair plate 3 is arranged between the top pressure positioning plate 64 and the lifting arm 1. A first adjustment hole is provided on the top pressure positioning plate 64, and the first adjustment hole is set as a threaded hole. The first mounting push rod 65 is connected to the inner thread of the first adjustment hole. The first mounting push rod 65 is vertically arranged with the top pressure positioning plate 64. By rotating the first mounting push rod 65, one end of the first mounting push rod 65 can be pressed against the side repair plate 3 to fit the side repair plate 3 tightly with the lifting arm 1.

[0034] Preferably, at least two first adjustment holes are provided on the same pressing and positioning plate 64 , and the first mounting push rods 65 in the two first adjustment holes are arranged in parallel, thereby achieving stable pressing and positioning of the side repair plate 3 .

After determining the position, the connecting rod 42 is welded and fixed to the vertical side plate of the lifting arm 1, and the side repair plate 3 is placed on the bottom positioning plate 61 accordingly. The side repair plate 3 is simultaneously set between the first side positioning plate 62 and the second side positioning plate 63, and between the top pressure positioning plate 64 and the lifting arm 1. By adjusting the second side positioning plate 62 and the second side positioning plate 63, the top pressure positioning plate 64 and the lifting arm 1 are adjusted. The first mounting push rod 65 and the second mounting push rod 66 adjust the position accuracy of the side repair plate 3 and finally lock the position. The side repair plate 3, the vertical side plate of the lifting arm 1 and the arc repair plate 2 are assembled and fixed and welded. After the fixed welding is completed, all the fillet welds pass the UT and MT inspections. If there are no defects in the welds, the fixing frame 4, the supporting frame 5 and the positioning frame 6 are removed. The side repair plate 3 passes the on-site actual sample inspection and acceptance and fully meets the design and installation requirements. It is delivered for use and has undergone periodic continuous casting machine large package turntable operation inspection to achieve the mechanical performance effect.

[0042] The repair method for the lifting arm of a large structural component described in the present invention is not only safe and easy to operate, but also has stable welding quality and low investment costs, meets actual on-site needs, has high work efficiency, and greatly reduces maintenance costs and reduces losses caused by long-term downtime, providing a guarantee for reasonable production.
